GMRO 5219 Popular Post Share Posted October 16, 2022 THE CONGRESS OF ATRUS To Determine the Secession of the Barony of Acre By invitation of THE KINGDOM OF HANSETI-RUSKA and THE KINGDOM OF BALIAN 10th of Tov and Yermey, 347 E.S. | 10th of Sun’s Smile, 1894 TO THE KING OF AAUN AND THE BARON OF ACRE, Peace be upon you and your peoples. It has come to our attention that the troubles within the lands of the former Orenian State have not died out, the last embers of a chaotic and fiery birth of the Commonwealth of Petra and other successor states linger yet. The Barony of Acre has, upon the vote to affirm the United Kingdom of Aaun as the legitimate successor state to the Harvest Confederacy, declared its intent to secede from the union. This right was granted to the members of the Confederacy as per the treaty following the Harvest Confederacy’s attack upon the Kingdom of Balian and the subsequent capture of the former Baron of Acre. As per the treaty, A Pact Sealed: “All members of the Confederacy will be given leave to secede should they wish to do so [...],” this right was granted with no expiration, and certainly, as the dust has not yet settled on the Harvest Confederacy, has this right yet to expire. It is not by our peace that another war shall be created and bring further stain to humanity, we shall do our utmost to keep the peace. Therefore, the Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska and the Kingdom of Balian do summon the King of Aaun and the Baron of Acre to the Congress of Atrus, to take place within the Palatio Monterosa during the month of the Deep Cold (or Joma and Umund), to discuss and settle the peaceful secession of the Barony of Acre from the United Kingdom of Aaun. WITH GOD AS OUR WITNESS, HIS ROYAL MAJESTY, Karl III by the Grace of Godan, King of Hanseti and Ruska, Grand Hetman of the Army, Prince of Bihar, Dules, Lahy, Muldav, Solvesborg, Slesvik and Ulgaard, Duke of Carnatia and Vanaheim, Margrave of Korstadt, Rothswald and Vasiland, Count of Alban, Alimar, Baranya, Graiswald, Karikhov, Karovia, Kaunas, Kavat, Kovachgrad, Kvasz, Markev, Nenzing, Torun, and Toruv, Viscount of Varna, Baron of Esenstadt, Kraken’s Watch, Kralta, Krepost, Lorentz, Rytsburg, Thurant, Venzia and Astfield, Lord of the Westfolk, Protector of the Highlanders, etcetera. HIS ROYAL MAJESTY, John I, by the Grace of GOD, King of Balian, Viscount of Eflen, Baron of Brucca, Lord of Atrus and Monterosa, Prince of the Holy Orenian Empire, and Protector of the Heartlanders, etcetera. Spoiler OOC: FRIDAY 21ST 5 EST (changed from previous as people could not make it) Balian Palace 34 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

garentoft 8352 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Georg Sigismund clasped his hands together within the confines of a lone apartment in Balian, leaning back in his seat as he sipped a locally produced piña colada. He thought then, that he ought to extend his gratitude to the new Legate. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SethWolf 1353 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Felix Weiss read the missive, a frown growing even larger upon his face as his eyes scanned the words. "Ea've had enough of this Southern nonsense." 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tadabug2000 3452 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Countess Johanne Vuiller glanced the missive over, having just been speaking of this in a Royal Council meeting moments earlier. She'd filed it away for safe keeping soon afterward, a hand settling at her hip as she'd begin anew in instructing her daughter in embroidery. Embroidered bears do not perfect themselves, afterall. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaltaMoss 1720 Share Posted October 17, 2022 With a clatter and a series of crashes Valentin went tumbling to the floor, drunkenly looking over the missive he still shakily held in his hands."I should have known, I should have known those bastards would bury their nose in it! Again! Every time, their thinly veiled garbage, canonist prince bullshit!" He spat out in-between sobs, taking another fresh hit from the bottle."They just take, and take, and take! Until nothing is left! No little bandage could fix the gaping wound in the heartlands!" "Oh Gustaf, if only you could see this. You'd know what to do." 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcs_tonsils_ 2826 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Ser Sebastien de Savoie lofted a brow as he read the missive in it's entirety. He was not very shocked at the tension growing in the east, for he had discussed it in length with many of his friends from the fallen Oren. The Savoyard rubbed his hand on his good leg before folding the missive and taking out a fresh letter that he might write to his friends in Sedan and Minitz. "Let us pray this resolves peacefully- or atleast that the fighting begins after my clay leg turns to flesh and blood." @Raijen Stars @Capt_Chief26 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergisala 2739 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Lord Lucius Galbraith shrugged upon hearing of the news "And what about me, Your Majesty? Who will pay me for the wedding that was unjustly and violently stolen from me and my fianceé? And for the shock and trauma that my future wife shall have to live with for the rest of her life for having had to witness such a violent episode orchestrated by the evildoers of Acre in her own wedding? Death is what those Acreans truly deserve!" he said, clearly annoyed with the attempt of the Canonist Princes of trying to keep the peace in this conflict. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Borin 5142 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Cardinal Viktor raises an eyebrow "To attempt to enforce a term upon the Kingdom of Aaun, which was seemingly rendered null and void with the dissolution of the Harvest Confederacy and replaced by an entirely different entity, is most irregular..." skips through the missive "Good that they attempt to avert bloodshed, a shame that one Canonist power attempts to puppet another." 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would a shame to have to help you walk back home…” @tcs_tonsils_ 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SapphirePool 1088 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Princess Persephone wondered how such a pressing matter arose just minutes after she was announced the new Legate. Perhaps this was the best chance to prove herself, she thought. She silently thanked the grand prince for the heads up. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
